Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a unique breed of dog with a playful temperament and a flattering sense of loyalty. They make fantastic family pets because they are an affectionate and social breed of dog. When it comes to exercise, they certainly enjoy regular strolls and short jaunts around the yard, but they are just as content lounging around the house. Its important to note that dachshunds are prone to back and spinal problems later in life, but you can help prevent this by avoiding over-exercise during puppyhood and always monitoring stairs and furniture jumping.
Dachshunds are not considered hypoallergenic. While they have a short, smooth coat, Dachshunds are considered moderate shedders. As a result, they are not the ideal choice for people with allergies. If someone in your household is prone to allergies, then you may want to consider a breed that produces less dander, such as a Greyhound or a Chinese Crested.
Feeding your Dachshund a diet of high-quality, nutrient-dense food gives them the best chance for a long and healthy life. A quality diet will consist of a variety of proteins, carbohydrates, essential fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, and water, as well as other important ingredients such as probiotics and prebiotics. It's best to break up feeding your Dachshund into two or three meals a day, rather than one larger meal.
Before you bring your new Dachshund home, it is important to take the time to properly prepare for the pup. First, make sure you have everything you need; food, toys, a collar and leash, a bed, and crates for sleeping and house training. Research proper vet care and find an animal hospital that can meet your pup’s needs. Research the breed, so you can understand their special needs and temperaments. Socializing your pup early with people and animals helps them to be confident and calm.
Yes, Dachshunds are considered small dogs. They are within the Toy Group of breeds, according to the American Kennel Club. They have long bodies and short legs which explains their nickname of 'weiner' dogs. Generally, Dachshunds weight 18-30 pounds but some varieties of this breed such as the Miniature Dachshund are even smaller, coming in around 11 pounds. While small, Dachshunds are known for their bold personalities and can be quite independent at times.
Dachshunds are active little dogs who enjoy playing and cuddling with their family. Generally, they do not require a large amount of exercise, but they do require at least 30 minutes of activity per day. This could be short walks, playing fetch, a romp in the backyard, or participate in a doggie agility class. Some light exercise such as a slow walk or playtime in a secure area can also help them stay fit and healthy. If possible, add a few minutes each day to help them reach their activity goals.
Yes, Dachshunds can get along quite well with kids if they are well-socialized, given plenty of exercise, and trained properly. Dachshunds are intelligent and loyal companions, and can even be protective of their families if they sense a threat. With proper training and guidance, your Dachshund can learn to interact safely and appropriately with children with patience and love. Additionally, the Dachshund's size and playful energy make them a great pet for families with kids who are looking for a companion that is fun and affectionate.
Dachshunds are known for their spirit and intelligence, which makes them a popular companion for both children and adults alike. They are capable of learning quickly and responding to commands almost immediately. While they have a reputation for being stubborn at times, with the proper training and reinforcement, this breed can become highly obedient. They are also able to detect their owners' moods and respond accordingly. All in all, Dachshunds possess the intelligence, wit, and confidence to be successful, long-term family pets.
